Oh yes . It does speed it down - every single blt. In fact, bltfast doesn''t even work with dxclipperized surfaces. However, you only (usually) use dxclipper when you are running in windowed mode, which suggests DEBUG mode, which therefore suggests that you doen''t really care about performance - your''re testing the game. Usually it is used with setting up the HWND, attaching it to the primary in windowed mode, so that the window clips Win32 stuff correctly.
